His novel ''The Fragmented Life of Don Jacobo Lerner'', was chosen by the National Yiddish Book Center as, "one of the 100 greatest Jewish Books of the last 150 years." 〔(List of works selected by the National Yiddish Book Center ).〕 The book tells the story of the life of Jacobo Lerner, a Jewish merchant, who immigrates to Peru from Eastern Europe. Jacobo has an illegitimate son, Efraín, by a Christian woman who he later abandons and thus never knows his son. Jacobo ultimately fails to achieve his goal of creating a traditional Jewish family before he dies, having been rejected by the respectable Miriam Abramowitz. Thematically, the novel presents an examination of Jewish identity and anti-Semitism. The book is divided into chapters which consist of vignettes written in the voices of the characters and an omnipotent narrator, as well as "Crónicas", and excerpts from ''Alma Hebrea'', a publication of the Jewish community in the novel, which features writings by the characters 〔Goldemberg, Isaac ''The Fragmented Life of Don Jacobo Lerner '' (University of New Mexico Press, 1999)〕 〔Goldemberg, Isaac ''The Fragmented Life of Don Jacobo Lerner '' (University of New Mexico Press, 1999)()〕 ==Selected Bibliography== "The Fragmented Life of Don jacobo Lerner * (1976) ''La vida a plazos de don Jacobo Lerner'' (1978) *Hombre de paso/Just Passing Through" (1981) "Tiempo al tiempo" (1984) "Play by Play" (1986) "La vida al contado" (1992) "El gran libro de América judía" (1998) "Peruvian blues'' (2001) * ''El nombre de padre'' (2001) "Hotel AmériKKa" (2002) ''Los autorretratos y las máscaras/Self-Portraits and Masks'' (2002) * ''Golpe de gracia'' (2003) * "Il nome del padre" (2003) * ''Los Cementerios Reales'' (2004) * ''La vida son los ríos'' (2005) * "La vie a credit de Don Jacobo Lerner" (2005) * ''Tierra de nadie'' (2006) * "Monos azules en Times Square" (2008) * "Acuérdate del escorpión" (2010); * "La vida breve" (2012) * "Diálogos conmigo y mis otros" (2013) * "Remember the Scorpion" (2015) * "Dialoghi con me e con e miei altri" (2015) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Isaac Goldemberg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
